In-person CPD courses will run alongside digital lessons
BEVA’s popular CPD courses are set to resume this month, with face-to-face lessons running alongside digital learning.
After more than a year of COVID-enforced online CPD, members and non-members will soon be able to take advantage of a wide array of hands-on, in-person courses, including the BEVA fundamentals series.
Together with the practical learning, there will also be a series of online courses with new content being added regularly.
A BEVA spokesperson said: "Strict COVID safety precautions are in force for each course; pre-course lateral flow tests are compulsory for all attendees, numbers are strictly limited, facemasks are required and hand sanitation sites are available."
A list of the available courses is below. For more information and to sign up, visit beva.org.uk/CPD1
